I amone of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice weshould prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a largecity.I have managed to convince myself that if it weren't for my job!wouldimmediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepyvillage buried in the country.But how realistic is the dream?Cities can befrightening places.The majority of the population live in massive towerblocks,noisy,dirty and impersonal.The sense of belonging to a community tendsto disappear when youlivefifteen floors up.All you can see from your windows is sky,or other blocks offlats.Children become aggressive and nervous--cooped up at home all day,withnowhere to play;their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world.Strangely enough,whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all kneweach other,nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don't even sayhelloto eachother.Country life,on the other hand,differs from this kind of isolatedexistence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of smallvillages together.People have the advantage of knowing that there is alwayssomeone to turn to when they need help.But country life has disadvantages too.While it is true that you may be among friends in a village,it is also truethat you are from the exciting and important events that take place in cities.There's little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie.Shoppingbecomes a major problem,and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you haveto go on an expedition to the nearest large town.The city-dweller who leavesfor the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness andquiet.What,then,is the answer?The country has the advantage of peace and quiet,butsuffers from the disadvantage of being cut off;the city breeds a feeling ofisolation,and constant noise batters the senses.But one of its mainadvantages is that you are at the centre of things;and that life doesn't cometo an end at half past nine at night.Some people have found(or rather bought)a compromisebetweenthe two:they have expressed their preference for the"quiet life"byleaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of largecities.They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers theyleave behind--they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvementwhich they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.Which of the following is not the disadvantage of country life?查看材料A.It isinconvenient to buy something.B.Villagers can't enjoy the exciting events.C.Villagers have few opportunities to see a film.D.Thereare many friends around each villager.

细节题。根据题干中的“the disadvantage of country life”可定位至第三段。第三段提到“…it is also true that you are from the exciting and important eventsthat take place in cities.There’s little possibility ofgoing to a new show or the latest movie.Shoppingbecomes a major problem”,由此可知A、B、C三项均符合文意。根据第三段中的“While it is true that youmay be among friends in a village,it is also truethat…”可知,生活在一大群朋友间并非缺点。故本题选D。
